Can somebody please explain, what Che Guevara or that particular political imagery has to do with QPR / Les / Captain Jack?

No problems with that. Rather Che than Vladimir or Adolf. | | | |

but why is that specifically relevant to QPR - other than the fact the organiser of the flags is quite pro trade unionist? | | | |

So can anyone explain what/why the link to Che Guevara aside from personal agenda | | | |

If you came out of Loftus Road thinking about that today, then I don’t know what to say.
It’s a group of young lads trying their best to make things a bit nicer / atmospheric for us. That’s the limit of what it is. | | | |

Got to say after today’s abysmal performance a flag is the least of my worries. | | | |

Completely agree: we were awful today and Marti possibly departing is ominous news - and for the record, (young) people trying to add to the tepid atmosphere at HQ should be aided and praised.
That said, it's perfectly cricket to ask a question on the forum.
So - why the very random (and seemingly zero link) inclusion of quite a violent revolutionary thug? I'm not sure too many people want our club / legend associated with that person / imagery.
Here's the thing. The guy in question (disclaimer: Loft Flags - not Che!) pushing these flags (great initiative objectively) is a widely know RMT activist. I actually went to university with this guy - nice enough fella, just what that imagery has to do with QPR should be up for clarity without prejudice.
If there can't be any reason aside from this kid's personal politics (which I very much doubt anybody can provide) - have a great evening x [Post edited 26 Apr 16:35]

you could be onto something given his economic policy of collectivization from us kulaks. | | | |

All these flags and banners yet we used to laugh at Chelsea fans for this kind of bollocks. |  | | |

Drogba's secret affiliation to the Orange Order was uncovered by their choice of flag colour. | | | |

It's factually incorrect.
Les never played on the Left Wing |  |

It’s not Che Guervara though is it? It’s Les Ferdinand.
Are you unsure about what Les Ferdinand has to do with QPR? [Post edited 26 Apr 16:51]

for the avoidance of doubt:

Yeah, like I say, it’s Les Ferdinand. | | | |

I like the Trevor Francis one.
Non-flag question but something I've always wondered...where does the Captain Jack song come from? It sounds a bit hooligany but never really known for sure or how it came to be. |  | | |

It was a C mob song and the third verse doesn't get sung anymore....
That's what I was told anyhow. | |

I'm glad someone explained it's supposed to be Leslie, because I could never work out who the fck we were looking at, certainly wasn't Ernesto. | |

I don’t know how old the OP is but I am sure that that image was first used when Les played for us.
It’s a QPR parody of a famous image, not a political flag at all.
I think it may even have been used as an AKUTR’s cover. |  | | |
